Georgia Tech HC Paul Johnson insinuated that the media has been to blame for speculation about his job security.

"I don’t get it from the administration, from the fan base, from the alumni. I see where y’all write about it in the paper and hear it on the radio," Johnson said, adding, "I don’t worry about it. I wouldn’t be the first guy and won’t be the last." With their upset of Virginia Tech on Saturday, the Yellow Jackets achieved bowl eligibility for the eighth time in Johnson's nine seasons at the helm of Georgia Tech's ship. Johnson has all of three losing seasons during his 20-year career as a head coach. After Georgia Tech officially is slotted into their bowl in the coming weeks, that will have made it 18 postseason berths in 20 seasons for Johnson-led teams. Nov 15 - 5:15 PM

Prior to his stint with the Beavers, Stansbury served as AD for UCF from March of 2012 to June of 2015. "I believe that this is one of those rare golden moments in life where opportunity meets ambition," said Tech president Bud Peterson. Sep 22 - 12:15 PM

Georgia Tech named Mike Flynn assistant athletics director for communications and public relations.

Flynn had been with Appalachian State for the last 13 seasons, helping to run the communications staff over the last 12.

"My family and I are unbelievably excited and grateful for the opportunity." Jun 9 - 3:05 PM

The season-opening game between Georgia Tech and Boston College in Ireland will kick off at 7:30 AM EST on Saturday, September 3.

We would like to apologize to Ireland in advance for foisting this contest upon them. Last season, the normally dependable Yellow Jackets finished 3-9 (1-7 in the ACC). The Eagles also finished 3-9 (we are so, so sorry, Ireland), but bested/worsted Tech's conference mark by finishing out 0-8 in the ACC. May 17 - 12:59 PM
